The Long Goodbye

Dear Audrey follows veteran documentary filmmaker Martin Duckworth as he cares for his wife Audrey, who is living with Alzheimer’s. What begins as a portrait of daily life gradually expands into a reflection on memory, devotion, and acceptance. Director Jeremiah Hayes allows the narrative to emerge organically, and in so doing, captures moments of striking intimacy. The resulting film resists easy categorization. Dear Audrey is part biography, part love story, and part meditation. And it’s an anchored by Duckworth, whose openness gives the film its emotional weight and lasting impact.
